The Nephilim

We are the lesser lights
the fallen and vainglory
come with to all the sights
gleaming towers multistoried
watching you since time began
watching you until the end
yet the end will not come
until the war is fought again
oh my god, the death of angels
turn away from this wicked sight
with you on our side we cannot fail!

Understand us...the damned.

You know you have survived a thousand times before
not even the cat wishes to die nine times
sometimes we live and die just to know whats its all for
so that when we then see the same signs
In another and if they decided to turn to us
we can truly understand
understand us
the damned

Pretty Parks

Right before the fire we danced in the dark
Drunk with the Babel of the gods in our heads
Then we burnt the forest to make pretty parks
Writing down what God said with pretty marks
God no longer spoke so some said God must be dead

Right before the fire we danced in the dark
And I feared for that very first spark
Knowing it would be the beginning of bloodshed
Then we burnt the forest to make pretty parks
Laughing at Noah for building an ark
Some did not listen so some ended up dead

Right before the fire we danced in the dark
Ignoring the ills within world and heart
‘Til they drop the bomb ‘til we all have bled
Then we burnt the forest to make pretty parks
Living in an age of post nuclear dark
You are the last one I wanted dead

Right before the fire we danced in the dark
Then we burnt the forest to make pretty parks

Your Patron Trepidation

what lies behind false smiles
is something vile
i am who they call trial

i am tribulation
the image of abomination
your patron trepidation

i am the passing shadow
in the corner of your eye
i am there when you die

conceal your soul, fear pervades
your spirit i prey and enervate
i am the dread as you contemplate

i am the adversaries thoughts of malign
the reasons you look behind
your encounter with terror vespertine

i am fright manifested
the key to the darkest gate
I AM DEATH AND I AWAIT!
